In its course to the west, the Shahrixonsoy forms the border between Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan for about 20 km until it flows through between the cities of Karasuu (Kyrgyzstan) and Qorasuv (Uzbekistan). In the further course through the Uzbek province Andijon it passes among other things the cities Qoʻrgʻontepa , Xoʻjaobod , Asaka and flows from the left into the Great Ferghana Canal near Shahrixon . The canal also takes its name from this point.
